My Problem is... I have to write a program that checks whether a number is the same when rotated 180 degrees. I don't need help with the coding, I would just like some assistance with understanding a command to do this. Is there a command that checks the character or digit at a specified location in an integer? eg.) What is the third digit of integer 1863? Thanks in advance. I am using Turing 4.0.5. |

Well an easy way would be turning it into a string, and then indexing the string. |

a way to do it without converting to a string is integer division then mod by 10. Look up the commands div and mod and think about how exactly you could do that |

crossley's way it probably the better one, but just wanted to let you know there was multiple ways. |
